Two-minute walk from Goa Dabolim T1 if you’re dropping someone
This Short Term Parking lot sits directly in front of Goa Dabolim International Airport’s Terminal 1, about a 2‑minute walk to the check‑in doors. It’s an open surface lot, run on the standard AAI-managed car park rate, so you pay the same tariff board pricing you’ll see at many other Indian airports. This is the spot for quick access, not bargain hunting around Vasco da Gama side streets.
Being an AAI-managed surface lot, you pay on exit based on the posted slabs: per entry, then stepping up by hour and then by day if you stay longer. There’s no separate premium zone, just one shared car park with marked bays in front of T1. If you’re planning a wait of 30–90 minutes for an arrival, paying the official rate here usually beats doing circles on the access road.
Walk time is the real benefit: count roughly 2 minutes from locking your car to reaching the terminal doors at T1. That’s short enough that you can walk elderly relatives to the entrance, help with luggage, and still be back out before the next fee band kicks in. For overnight or multi‑day trips, the daily rate in this same Short Term Parking quickly adds up compared with leaving the car in town.
One practical tip: keep cash or a working UPI app ready before you pull into Short Term Parking, and take a photo of your ticket with the time stamp so you know exactly when your next fee band starts.
